Dirty on Purpose on Tour

Dirty on Purpose, one of the best undiscovered acts out there right now, is again on tour. Dates are at the bottom of the post.

Their blending of My Bloody Valentine shoegaze and Smashing Pumpkins alternative is frankly better than either at times. Where similar act Silversun Pickups rely on brilliant guitars and heavily-layered melodies, Dirty on Purpose more often than not remain subtle, charming and forlorn. Their LP Hallelujah Sirens is heart-wrenching in some moments and exhilarating at others. Check out the video for "Light Pollution" below.
